For an extra burst of citrus, consider adding a splash of lemon-lime soda before serving. Use high-quality vodka for the best flavor profile. Adjust the amount of sweet and sour mix to your preference. Chill your martini glass in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before preparing the drink for an extra frosty experience.
